It’s embarrassing when one of those liberal bloggers points out that Sarah Palin lies, is unethical, or just ignorant. It’s offensive to Palin when the ‘lamestream media” calls her out for her ridiculous statements. But it’s humiliating when it’s Fox news that disrespects their own commentator. Now in her own words, Palin seems to have her ‘panties in a wad” over the cancellation of her scheduled interview with FOX.
Most of us would never know that Fox News decided that they didn’t want to interview Palin last night. It was Sarah Palin who made such a big deal about the cancellation. She posted notice to the world that Fox had cancelled her interview last night. Portraying herself as the victim, once again, Palin posted on Facebook:
“I’m sorry Fox cancelled all my scheduled interviews tonight because I sure wanted to take the opportunity on the air to highlight Senator John McCain’s positive contributions to America, to honor him, and to reflect on what a biased media unfairly put him through four years ago tonight. Granted, our honored and esteemed war hero has gone through much more than the liberal media can ever do to him in their efforts to harm this patriot. I look forward to hearing his words to his fellow Americans tonight more than any of the other convention speeches. God bless John McCain. Thank you for everything. And happy birthday, my friend.”
Nobody knows why Fox cancelled this interview. There could be many explanations. They might include:
1. Greta refused to interview Palin any more, and no other Fox News commentator would agree to appear on camera with her.
2. Fox heard that Homeland Security was actually going to release the records of the David Chaney interview.
3. Sarah was going to have to wear her sunglasses during the interview, as her bruising from the most recent re-alignment procedure was still evident.
4. Fox news found out that Paul Revere was really warning the Americans.
5. Tripp called Roger Ailes a faggot.
6. None of the anchors at Fox could keep from laughing during the last interview with Palin wearing her newest wig.
7. Palin was put on suspension as a result of refusing to interview Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain at the Tea Party Rally. Evidently Palin got her “panties in a wad“ when they didn’t invite her.
8. Homeland Security put Fox on “high alert’ that Palin was “palling around with her terrorist” allies in North Korea.
This cancellation comes only one day before Sandy Kohn’s scathing revelations regarding the lies in Paul Ryan’s speech. This is particularly unbelievable after several Fox News commentators praised Ryan’s speech. What’s happening at FOX? They are in danger of becoming honest reporters?

not to worry, it only rolled over her head, and she has many other wigs.

Someone very high up must have pulled the plug on Sarah Palin. I wonder if Fox got their orders from Mitt Romney and the GOP establishment. I didn’t see her latest interview but read that she talked about how privileged the Romney’s are…jealousy perhaps?

Any media out there do a comparison between the 08 GOP VP hopeful and this years? Ya know compare the speeches?
Ryan focused very little about his accomplishments, so to speak. Examine where he garnered cheers for the sentences in his speech. I seem to recall a self grandeur kind of cheering when it came to the sentences in Palin’s GOP VP screech.

She could have just wished John McCain a Happy Birthday and made no mention of the fact that she was not going to be on fox that night. Was anybody expecting her to be on every night? She’s not even at the convention!
She really is clueless on appropriate adult behavior, never mind journalist integrity!
I foresee her heading on over to la la land to work with glen beck.

Her recent rant on hatebook makes me wonder if McCain got her plug pulled, and she knows it. I find it interesting that she praises McCain in the same rant that she critiques fox. She could have posted either one separately, but she combined the topics.
Could her words have been a warning to McCain? It seems that she has her spot back

Breaking news: Mystery speaker is dirty harry,
I so loved Clint for so many years. But that does dispel the rumor that sea hag is the mystery speaker. that harridan has officially been kicked to the curb..hope she and tawd invested that $$ wisely because the well has about run dry simple sister.

Somehow she manages to do the opposite of what she should have done. If she had devoted her Facebook page to wishing JM happy birthday, she would have come across as gracious. But this way she got the headlines. Any attention is better than none at all?

Malia I disagree with your post “Sarah Palin Smackdown; She’s Got Her Panties in a Wad”
Its Todd that wears the panties and its Sarah who wears the jock strap in the family.

Have read article now and need to comment on Romney’s and Mormonism’s acceptance of Lying For The Lord.
I think what is most frustrating about the current GOP is not only their ability to flat out LIE (no, not “untruths” not “inaccuracies” but flat out L.I.E.S.) and not even the willingness, the ease with which they lie.
What is most frustrating—and maddening— is that they think it is ok to lie.
And especially using their concept of GOD as support for lying.
I think the current GOP cares about one thing and one thing only.
GET THAT BLACK MAN OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE. RACISM.
I am originally from Memphis, left in 1963 and never returned, but I grew up with that real entrenched racism of the south, where every white person, no matter how ignorant, how low an IQ, how unprincipled, how mean spirited, was ALWAYS considered superior to ANY black person.
Where “Mrs” or “Miss” or “Mr.” was not printed in the newspaper if the person referred to was black. Where the “N” word was used freely, openly, and with a cruel meanness made all the worse because the speaker thought so little of using it.
I never expected a black person would be elected in my lifetime. I am pleased beyond belief that it has happened and President Obama is so deserving of his presidency that there is no question that he was elected for any other reason than the fact that he was the best man for the job and the best man for the job in more than a few of the last presidencies.
Too many others also felt they would never see a black person in the white house in their life time but for entirely opposite reasons. They never felt citizens of the United States would be so stupid as to elect a black man.
You have to put yourself into the minds of these people to understand. To too many, having a black man in a position of power, control, authority, in ANY situation is HUMILATING ! Humilating that a “N–word” is in ANY way better than, superior to them is just unthinkable.
We have seen this still deeply entrenched racism with the outspoken remarks from those who wanted Obama’s presidency to fail, a congress that opposed him at every turn, GOP politicians who could care less about policy, how the country is affected—-we even have people willing to vote AGAINST their own best interest ! ! ! and WHY?? Because ALL they care about is to stop feeling humilated. To stop having to face the bigotry, the prejudice, the unfairness, the dishonesty of their own thoughts, feelings and opinions i.e. the fraud of their own lives.
NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT NOR MORE MOTIVATING TO ANYONE THAN TO NOT BE OR FEEL HUMILATED.
Think how women feel when we listen to the specifics of the GOP’s war on women. How HUMILATING is it to submit to an unneeded but government mandated vaginal iintrustion in order to get an abortion. How HUMILATING is it to be told you have to bear the child of a rapist, that the life of a fetus is more important than you physically surviving a pregnancy, that there is “legitimate” rape as opposed to some other kind of rape.
I hope it is humilating enough that we all do everything we can to not have Romney become our next president.
But this is WHY the current GOP is lying, AND feel it is not only OK to do so, that LYING IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO !
The ONLY real issue in this election for most of the GOP is to get that black man out of the white house NO MATTER WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO TO ACHIEVE THAT.
THAT is WHY they are so open about lying, so obvious—because they do NOT care about what is right, they do NOT care about what the truth is–THOSE ARE MOOT POINTS as are legitimate policy differences.
THEY D.O. N.O.T. C.A.R.E.
Hard to believe that a whole mass of people can rationalize their fears, insecurities, etc etc etc the same as an individual ( think Palin, Ryan, Bachman, Cain, Brewer ad infinitum) but Yes, that is exactly what is happening.
He who has the most votes wins—that is ALL the current GOP cares about and NOTHING else. ANYTHING they feel they need to do to get those votes—just like Sarah Palin who also has “God” on her side—they will do and yes, they think “God” is on their side and therefore man’s law means little.
History will look with shame on this period for the GOP and like McCain told Palin at the end of Game Change not to fall in with the radicals like Limbaugh etc, that that would destroy the GOP party, that is exactly what SHE did and what Romney/Ryan et al are doing.
THE GOP has been taken over and they are desperate.
We have to be more desperate but without lowering our bar as they have.
There is only one way to do that and that is to vote and to speak up every chance we get in our own lives, even if there is a personal cost to pay with loss of friends, angry relatives or whatever.

She said she was “sorry” that Fox had cancelled all of her scheduled interviews for the next four nights. (!)
The next four nights?! Fox said they needed time for hurricane coverage…uh, even the weather channel has pretty much conceded Isaac is over and thankfully not as bad as was feared.
Sarah is now starting her bullshit “Why does Fox news hate WAR HERO John McCain? I only wanted the air time to praise this WAR HERO.”
And Number 5 on your list is wrong. Tripp called Roger Ailes a “fat faggot”. Please correct.

Read tonight on HP that Fox may not renew the sarah palin contract? Seems they have no use for her. She is not hot anymore or gets ratings. Thrown out with the dirty water. Gee? maybe she will be a mom, wife, granny and have time to answer questions in a court of law.

Well you could knock me over with a feather. I would have bet money SP would have had a cake wheeled into the convention, so she could pop out and start singing “Happy Birthday” to grab attention away from Mittens.
Someone with a lot of clout must have filed a restraining order against her. Someone even she would not dare cross… someone who told her she could not even be in the same state while Mitt was on stage.
Four years ago she was “the future of the Republican party”, this weekend she was not even allowed on stage as a “token” woman.

It would really surprise me if they allowed the truth about Todd Palin and David Chaney to go public. Of course they have asked McCain and his staffers about the story and interviewed Chaney. That means many legislators now know a bit more of the truth about the Palins and therefore FUX NEWS does as well. Malia I doubt they will respond to you before the election. Clearly they don’t keep crazy people or psychopaths away from the convention, but instead invite them, so there is some other reason Palin was not invited.

i do know that the chances are unlikely that they will produce these documents, but only that they should. I have to remain optimistic, or I’d have given up long ago!

Apparently by going public on the cancellation, Palin thinks she has more supporters than Faux Nooz has viewers. HhHaHa
